I wil organize this critique on 6 parts, one the each grades and the last one as an overall perception of the work. Remind that I will expose a personnal view, i'm not objective !

The vision is great, it is clearly a special place à a special moment and sharing that with us is really a good thing. So, there is nothing more to say on that point. It is just great.

The originality is poor. I mean, it is just a fall forest and lake picture... There is nothing really original in this piece.

The technique seems great, but this artist in the background doesn't seems to be there by choice... Why dont wait the day after to do another shot ? This ruined the work for me.

But still, the impact is great, colors are beautiful, fall is really present and the work ask for nostalgia and peace of mind.

As a conclusion, this is a nice shot, but far from a "best of" for the deferrent default i've talk. Another shot like this with only mother nature, at a better time (maybe sunrise or fall) will make it really epic. Keep working !
